    Hello,

    30 is not binary (20 either, but to add 10?), but in any case the motherboard brand alone does not answer a RAM upgrade question.

    One can always simply open the PC to check the number of available slots, but that still doesn’t answer it because there is a limit per slot and a global limit: the answer will be found in the PC’s manual, on paper or online.

    Hello

    Install UserDiag − Home

    Do an "export config pc" and paste the link here so we can see exactly what your PC is made of.

    That said, 20 GB is indeed a surprising amount of RAM because you have to do a non-natural mix to reach it, but it is more than enough for most uses.
